Abstract

Alzheimer's dementia (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that causes motor and cognitive decline. The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of a specific physical activity program on the cognitive, depressive symptoms and functional capacity of patients with diagnosis of probable AD. The subject, a 79-year old woman, participated in this program for three months, with 50 min sessions three times a week. The instruments used were the Cambridge Cognitive Examination; the Geriatric Depression Scale; and the Battery of the American Alliance for Health Physical Education, Recreation and Dance. The results in relationship with the depressive symptoms and functional capacity were significantly positive. There were no changes in regards to the patient's cognitive functions. In conclusion, this physical activity program seems to be an important part of the treatment for patients with AD, as it improves the functional capacity and also stimulates cognitive tasks.

体育活动对阿尔茨海默病的影响:一个临床案例

阿尔茨海默氏痴呆症(AD)是一种神经退行性疾病，会导致运动和认知能力下降。本研究的目的是分析特定的体育活动计划对诊断为可能AD的患者的认知、抑郁症状和功能能力的影响。受试者是一位79岁的女性，她参加了这个项目，为期三个月，每周三次，每次50分钟。使用的工具是剑桥认知测试;老年抑郁量表;以及美国健康、体育、娱乐和舞蹈联盟的电池组。结果与抑郁症状和功能能力呈显著正相关。患者的认知功能没有变化。总之，这种体育活动计划似乎是治疗AD患者的重要组成部分，因为它提高了功能能力，也刺激了认知任务。
